Why the name "Chunky Gal"?No, we aren't in the business of weight loss. The name Chunky Gal comes from the mountain range that we sit right at the base of, Chunky Gal Mountain. The mountains were named after an old Cherokee Indian story of a chief's daughter that did not want to be married off to who her father had selected and ran away into the mountains. Chunky Gal Mountain was the last place she was seen.
